Murder my Nimbus Swimmer, will your?
On second thought, let me do it for you, for a heck of a Simic Manipulator.

JimmyNoob has the feel of this. Everyone who thinks this is underwhelming isn't thinking in proper terms of counters and creature targeting. With the Innistrad block you had Cathar's Crusade, Wild Defiance, Champion of Lambholt and the Parish, Unruly Mob, Gavony Township, Grimgrin, Increasing Savagery, Lumberknot, Mikaeus, Predator Ooze, and a whole host of Undying and Morbid creatures to play with. If you felt splashy you could even go for the counter vampires.
M13 had the rings, Slumbering Dragon, and the Primordial Hydra.
RTR had Evolve, Scavenge, Common Bond, Corpsejack Menace, Fathom Mage, Gyre Sage, and more.
M14 brought even more hydras.
And now Theros brings Heroic with a lot of counters.
What we have here is an spell for 1 very flexible hybrid mana that can target and trigger two creatures and let you move a many counters as you want. All at instant speed. This is a solid workhorse of a card that has been relevant for its whole life. It can set up all sorts of combo... (see all)

I almost missed that this says "any number". Which means it doesnt kill protean hydra like fate transfer does. Im liking this card.
Also, if you are looking for a similar, more drastic card in different colors, consider spike cannibal.

Perfect heroic trigger. Trigger the effect of 2 creatures at once, perhaps saving one or just buffing up your most powerful dude. Love it.
